World History Workshop
The World History Workshop is a weekly discussion group open to postgraduate students and early career fellows. In collaboration with the World History MPhil course, the workshop focuses on innovative research into global and transnational currents, colonial and post-colonial societies and regional histories from Asia, Africa, Latin America, the Caribbean, and the Middle East spanning roughly from 1750 to 2000 C.E. We encourage submissions on a variety of topics including global economic history; histories of science, migration, race, gender and empire; post-colonial studies and comparative history. In return, speakers at the Workshop can expect feedback from a wide range of theoretical and disciplinary approaches from a friendly and welcoming group of scholars.
The Workshop meets on Thursdays from 2:30-3:30pm during termtime. Typical sessions contain one 25 to 30 minute presentation followed by questions. However, the Workshop also runs a number of special events ranging from small roundtable discussions to an annual talk on using overseas archives and dedicated presentation days for World History MPhil students.
The World History Workshop is currently being held both virtually and in person. For online sessions, all links will be distributed through the mailing list prior to each session - you can sign up to the mailing list here or by emailing the convenors directly at worldhistoryworkshop@gmail.com. You can also receive updates on the Workshop and other relevant Cambridge events by following @CamWorldHistory on Twitter.
Unless otherwise specified, we will meet on Thursdays (2:30-3:30 pm) in Room 3 of the History Faculty building. Participants may also join us via Microsoft Teams. Links will be available via our mailing list.
